It's 2012, the year of the Diamond Jubilee, the year of the London Olympics... but these events pale into insignificance when compared to the majesty of the rapper world's premier competition: DERT 2012 - The Rapperlympics!
Despite their best efforts, this year's hosts (the inimitable Thrales Rapper) have been unable to provoke the London Olympic Committee into a highly publicised lawsuit over the name. However, the weekend still promises to be the very highlight of the year for those interested in watching lots of rapper sides dancing in pubs in London. It's a fairly specialist fetish, but there you are. And talking of fetishes, this year's pubs are scattered throughout Soho and Camden, which will open the eyes of the younger dancers and the wallets of the more middle-aged ones who simply can't resist a bargain in those delightful markets, darling.
Inevitably, Northgate will be there representing Bath and fully expect to have a very jolly time.
